Meeting statistics

The current form of G2 Esports

The 2024 European champions are competing this season with a redesigned roster. The German team showed a typical game during the LEC Winter 2024 – Regular Season, winning seven of nine games and splitting the top spot with BDS. The only unexpected result that could be called a sensation was a loss to Rogue. That’s the charm of the Bo1. G2 Esports advanced to the Grand Finals by defeating GIANTX, Fnatic, and BDS. In the title match, the MAD Lions KOI met the same end.

G2 participated in the 2024 Mid-Season Invitational and performed admirably. They made it to the top 4, which is quite impressive for an LEC organization.

G2 Esports secured a spot in the LEC Summer 2024 – Playoffs prior to the Esports World Cup 2024. There, they lost to TES on the last step before the championship match. They did win the LEC Summer 2024, but only after dropping to the Lower Bracket, for which they can “thank” Fnatic, who defeated them 3-2 in the Upper Bracket – Semifinals. After defeating BDS 3-2 in the LB match, they took revenge on Fnatic in the Grand Final to win the LEC Summer 2024 title.

G2 dropped to the Lower Bracket in the LEC Season Finals 2024 too after a shock loss to the MAD Lions KOI (2-3). Nevertheless, that didn’t stop them from rising, as they defeated every rival and ultimately won the tournament. They made it to the 2-1 bracket in the Worlds 2024. They eventually lost to T1 and BLG, though, and finished in the top 12. G2 Esports ended the LEC Winter 2025 – Regular Season with a score of 6-3 (third place in the standings). This wasn’t terrible in theory, but given their performance from the previous season, we should anticipate a different and superior game in the Playoffs from them. That’s why they are designated as favorites in this match, with odds to win of 1.20 on Thunderpick. GIANTX are 4.00.

The current form of GIANTX

The organization, which seized the spot from the British Excel Esports, made its LoL debut at the LEC 2024 Winter tournament. Excel Esports and the Spanish squad Giants merged to form GIANTX. The team waited until the very last minute to reveal their whole roster for the 2025 campaign.

Speaking about the LEC 2024 Winter, GIANTX dropped two games, one in the Upper Bracket and one in the Lower Bracket, after narrowly qualifying for the Playoffs. At the LEC Spring 2024 – Regular Season, GIANTX placed sixth. They only qualified for the Playoffs at the LEC Summer 2024 after finishing seventh in the Regular Season and finishing in the same position at the conclusion of the main stage. They placed in the top six at the LEC Finals 2024, which came next.

With a 5-4 score, GIANTX finished sixth in the LEC Winter 2025 – Regular Season. Considering their overall 2025 playing form, it’s an excellent record.

Head-to-head

The two teams have faced off five times in the past. In all the matchups, G2 Esports prevailed.

G2 are in desperate need of a match like this. GIANTX are the opponents that will boost the confidence of the German side to meet the greater challenge in the Semifinals (Fnatic or Heretics), considering their inconsistent performance in the group stage.
